Silence
Stand in the silence. /
It is never empty /
if you are there.

“Silence”
Silence
Fall leaves on a bench,
a pile of my yesterdays
all in dead silence.

“Eyes”
Eyes
Cat’s eyes in the dark, /
answering the emptiness, /
cool in the silence.

“Speaking”
Speaking
Speaking in Nature’s tongue, /
The breeze sounds the wind chimes. /
I stand in silence.

“Silence”
Silence
The wind rattles limbs /
sweeps the leaves after the rain. /
Ravens stay silent.

“Buzz”
Buzz
Crossing and searching, /
overhead buzzed a manmade bug. /
Cloud holds its silence.

Haiku and photo: “The street”
The street
Red lights strip the dark /
Sirens usurp the silence /
Need consumes the street.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Silence”
Silence tastes empty. /
Without your whisper, my ear /
hears only stale words.
